From the publisher

Kilmeny of the Orchard is a novel by Lucy Maud Montgomery, the author of the beloved Anne of Green Gables series. The story follows Eric Marshall, a young man who moves to Prince Edward Island to teach at a rural school. While exploring the countryside, he comes across a secluded orchard and meets Kilmeny, a beautiful and mysterious girl who has been raised in isolation by her stern aunt and uncle. As Eric and Kilmeny grow closer, he learns the tragic secret that has kept her hidden away from the world. The novel explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the power of communication, as Eric works to help Kilmeny find her voice and break free from the constraints of her past. With its charming setting and engaging characters, Kilmeny of the Orchard is a timeless classic of Canadian literature.WHEN he emerged from the spruce wood and entered the orchard his heart gave a sudden leap, and he felt that the blood rushed madly to his face. She was there, bending over the bed of June lilies in the centre of the garden plot. He could only see her profile, virginal and white.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
